I'm very excited to finally have an actual file in hand for CM7. Just FYI though, before you flash too soon:

Not working:

Audio
Bluetooth
Accelerometer
accelerated Video decoding
Suspend
TS calibration on A28/A32/A43

Known problems:

general instability / random crashes
Touchscreen has problems on the A101
hard to use on resistive TS models due to missing calibration

There's still some work to be done before it's a daily use ROM, but hopefully we can help out and fix some of these issues.

Great news guys! Look forward to testing it.

How do I edit the list?

Cyanogen||/cyanogen.img|/sbin/init|1

Update
This is really great, but you can notice this is an alfa version
